MIR. Warde has made the character OF
lirginius one OF his most careful studies,
aud those who visited the National last
night were rewarded by the enjoyment Of
an exceptionally powerful aud dignided
representation OF the character. The re.
mainder OF the cast confirmed the impres.
sions, favorable or unfavorable, that they
created on Monday night. Tonight "Galbi,
the Gladiator" will be presented. To.mor-
row night he will play "Gaston Cadol. ~
This is the play in which the famous French
actor, Coquelin, scored marked success,
and is presented for the first time in Wash.
ington by Mr.. Warde.

AT the meeting OF the Citizens Repre-.
sentative Committee, In the @. A. Il. build
ing last evening, Mr.. L. b. Hay arose to
explain his action In the previous meeting
in regard to the report OF the Committee on
Streets. lie said he had been accused OF
endeavoring to "chew up" the chairman OF
the Committee on Streets. lie denied that
he assailed the committee, and said when he
congratulated MIR. Larner, the chairman, on
his report 1t was with the belief that the
statements In IT, TO the effect that the
Commissioners had diverted appropriations,
were true. He had since seen figures prov.
Ing, to bis satisfaction, that the committee
had been In the wrong.
MIR. Larner said he did not object TO Mr..
Hays motion to reconsider, but to his
putting words In his mouth that he did
not use.
Mr.. s. G. Clarke submitted the following
resolution, which was referred to the Com
mittee on Parks:
Rcso'red, That this committee favors and
recommends as of worldwide, national and
lnternational Importance, the selection OF a
on tho seventy seventh meridian OF longitude
from the Royal Observatory Of Greenwich, In
England, making the meridian lines of the
two Identical, aud practically making wash.

world Thus removing the fractional differences
between the longitudinal line and the longi.

actual longitude and the false meridian and

tations and much perplexity In calculations
and reckonings for all time to come

This association, organized 10 1879, now
has fine building at 1908 street, and ID
the only one OF Its kind In the country
which owns Its own building. The main
principle upon which the Equitable
is organized Is to enable aud en-.
courage Its members-Flrst, to make
amounts on the shares held; second, to pur.
chase, pay for and acquire property by oh.
tanning advances on long time, repsying the
'amc in small monthly installments, with
the privilege of settling all or any portion
OF the advance at the pleasure OF the bor-
rover. The association may therefore be
said to consist OF two classes Of share
holders, viz: Those who make sys.
tematic payments on stock to accumu-
late savings and profits, who may
or may not take advances, and
those who obtain advances to secure homes
or acquire other property. The practice OF
| paying small amounts into associations OF
this character Is fast becoming a factor
among those Of email means In securing
home or In laying by something for a rainy
day. The system has been tried and proven
q success, and is becoming more popular as
those who have invested In them secure
homes, while those who have not, toll on In
the same old rut, living still from hand to
mouth, subject to the caprices OF landlords.
| During the ninety-three months OF exist
| ence which the Equitable has enjoyed they
have advanced to shareholders the enormous
sum OF 81 100000, and in but one case has q
shareholder ceased to pay his assessments,
thus proving that the habit OF saving Il
easily cultivated. and when once com.
menced seldom is abandoned.
The Association has Just opened subscrip.
tion books for new issue Of stock. Sub
scriptions and the first payment will be re
cefved daily at the Office OF the Association,
Equitable Building, 1908 L street northwest
Shares at $3.50 per month each. In tht
